當地時間26日晚，美國東北部迎來大范圍的暴風雪天氣。為“抱團取暖”，部分紐約居民上網尋“暴雪伴侶（blizzard buddies）”。

With a massive storm expected to drop up to 3 feet of snow on the Northeast U.S. before it ends Tuesday, a flurry of New Yorkers are placing online ads seeking "blizzard buddies" for companionship, snuggling and, in so many words, sex.

北美洲暴雪來襲，積雪將達3英尺厚，預計周二停止。一群紐約人于是為找人陪伴、依偎取暖——直截了當地說，就是性——開始上網發布尋“暴雪伴侶”的廣告。

A search of Craiglist's recent personal ads for "snow" or "blizzard" turns up scores of New York-area listings -- many not safe for work -- from city dwellers looking for someone to hook up with while the storm rages outside.

在Craiglist上的最新個人廣告中搜索“snow”和“blizzard”，你會發現許多紐約居民發布的信息——其中很多不適合在工作的時候看——在暴雪肆虐的時候找個伴。

"Seeking snuggle buddy for upcoming blizzard. Will make u pancakes and coffee and hot chocolate all day. You'll also get my Netflix password. I have lots of thick blankets and interesting books to read if we get snowed in," read one of the tamer listings, from a 26-year-old man in Ridgewood, New Jersey.

新澤西州里奇伍德一名26歲男子在一條平談無奇的信息中寫道，“暴雪將至，尋依偎伴侶。會整天為你做煎餅、咖啡和熱巧克力。我的Netflix密碼也會告訴你。如果被大雪封住，我還有很多厚毯子和有趣的書可讀。”
